This paper bridges Molecular Dynamics and Transition State Theory by applying a dynamical corrections formalism to surface diffusion, identifying a low-temperature bounce-back mechanism causing non-Arrhenius behavior.
This 1994 handbook chapter serves as a practical user guide for the Embedded-Atom Method (EAM). It details the theoretical derivation from density-functional theory, synthesizes related methods like the Glue Model, and provides a complete tutorial on fitting potentials, illustrated with a specific implementation for the Ni-Al-B system.
This 1993 review systematizes the Embedded-Atom Method (EAM) as a practical semi-empirical approach for metallic systems. It synthesizes theory, applications, and connections to related methods while addressing the limitations of pair potentials.
This paper validates the homogeneous Evans method for calculating thermal conductivity against experimental Argon data. It demonstrates broad agreement across the phase diagram but identifies significant non-monotonic behavior and enhanced long-time tails near the critical point.
This paper resolves Levinthal’s paradox by replacing the single-pathway view with a statistical energy landscape approach. It introduces the concepts of the folding funnel, the glass transition in proteins, and the ‘stability gap’ as a design principle for foldable sequences.
This 1990 paper presents an early OCR pipeline for converting hand-drawn or printed chemical structures into connectivity tables. It introduces novel sweeping algorithms for graph perception and a matrix-based feature extraction method for character recognition.
An early method paper (AAAI ‘07) proposing a multi-stage sketch recognition pipeline. It introduces a domain verification step that uses chemical rules to refine ink parsing, achieving a 27% error reduction over geometric-only baselines.
A 2021 image-to-text approach treating OCSR as an image captioning task. It uses Transformers with SELFIES representation to convert molecular structure diagrams into SMILES strings, enabling extraction of visual chemical knowledge from scientific literature.
This study provides the first direct experimental proof that rate oscillations in catalytic CO oxidation on supported Pt are driven by a periodic oxidation and reduction of the catalyst surface. By monitoring Bragg peak intensities in situ, the authors confirm the ‘oxide model’ over competing reconstruction or carbon models.
This 1992 paper introduces Kekulé, one of the first complete Optical Chemical Structure Recognition (OCSR) systems. It details a pipeline integrating raster-to-vector conversion, neural network-based OCR, and rule-based logic to convert printed chemical diagrams into connection tables.
Imbihl et al. establish the first detailed microscopic model for CO oxidation oscillations on Pt(100), identifying the adsorbate-induced hex to 1x1 phase transition as the driving force. The study combines linear stability analysis with numerical reaction-diffusion simulations.
A molecular dynamics investigation using EAM and many-body potentials to elucidate atomic exchange mechanisms on Iridium surfaces, verifying Field Ion Microscope observations.
